Refusing to join forces with Embiid! Give up the maximum salary

If you want to choose the worst team in the NBA, I will choose the Philadelphia 76ers because the current situation of this team is relatively unfavorable. Embiid, the leading star, cannot be called a top star, the second-in-command Maxi is also plagued by injuries, and the third-in-command George is a typical garbage contract. At the age of 35, he received a four-year maximum salary of US$212 million. It can be seen that the operational ability of the 76ers management is really average, which is far from that of the Thunder Celtics management, and he doesn't understand the ball at all.

The 76ers star Embiid was too childish. As soon as he was eliminated in the playoffs, he started to complain about his teammates. First, Simmons later complained about Harden, especially when he made Harden hurt Harden at that time, he chose to leave Philadelphia 76ers in the offseason.

Harden was able to sign a 4-year, $210 million super salary with the Philadelphia 76ers management, but because Embiid was childish, he chose to leave and finally asked himself to be traded to the Clippers to join forces with Karenard Jr.

The player Harden has a relatively bumpy NBA career. He basically has the strength to compete for the championship at his peak and is one of the top three stars in the NBA league, especially in 2018, and it is really fierce. Joining Chris Paul to fight against the Golden State Warriors, it is definitely not easy to tie up with him. However, Harden's key game in the playoffs is average, and it has been reflected in this year's playoffs. In the tiebreak battle with the Nuggets, Harden only scored 7 points + 13 assists + 5 rebounds + 2 steals + 1 block in the whole game, with only 2 of 8 shots and 25% shooting percentage, which is not the data produced by a star.

Harden is too soft in the playoffs, especially after leaving the Rockets, his physical condition is getting worse and worse. Harden has lost the explosive power of the Rockets period. His breakthrough speed has slowed down and he now plays by rhythm. He also has a good shooting rate after entering the basket. But he is always a thirty-year-old man. After breaking through to the penalty area, he has a poor shooting rate.

Harden has a three-pointer in his hand, which greatly increases the offensive space. In addition, Harden is an excellent passer, which does provide a considerable role for the team's offense. In short, Harden is playing like Paul in his old age, focusing on organization and neglecting individual offenses.

In terms of defense, Harden's defensive effect this season is average. After all, he is already a thirty-year-old man, and he is troubled by a hamstring injury and his footsteps are slow to move. In addition, Harden's defensive enthusiasm is not very high, resulting in his defensive efficiency in the playoffs is only 118.5, ranking 91st in the league.

ALLTIME LEADERS INBA PLAYOFFS. Harden often has a high-rise defense, which is much more serious than James. You can look at James' defense this year. Supporting the Lakers' defensive system can also make the Timberwolves score less than 100 points, averaging 2 steals and 1.8 blocks per game.

Harden is different. If he can't defend, he can't defend. Especially when he was beaten by Murray in the G7 game, Harden is always absent-minded in defense and relies more on his teammates Zubac and Leonard to give him steps often.

In short, I think Harden missed the championship in his NBA career. With his style of play and his personality, he is indeed unlikely to win the championship, especially in the playoffs. Harden can't adapt to super high-intensity games at all. Facing Aaron Gordon's close defense, Harden can't stand it.

Harden previously gave up renewing a four-year, $210 million maximum salary contract with the Philadelphia 76ers. He only signed a two-year, $70 million contract with the Clippers during the offseason last year, which shows that he is too eager to win the championship. But things didn't go as expected. Harden did not have the strength of James and Curry, and even if he joined forces with Xiaoka, it would be difficult to reach the top. It's so miserable!
